API standard 650 liquid-storage tanks tank-bottom reinforcing plate

In the actual welding of API standard 650 liquid-storage tanks, operators will use more arc-shaped plates for tailor-welding to better adapt to the larger volume of oil storage tanks. In order to effectively control the deformation of the welding seam of the API standard 650 liquid-storage tanks, a scientific and accurate prefabricated bottom plate is required. In the process of prefabricating the bottom plate of the oil storage tank, it is necessary to strictly follow the technical requirements for the construction of the oil storage tank. At the same time, it is also necessary to clarify the external dimensions according to its actual manufacturing standards so that it has sufficient shrinkage.

API 620 Crude Oil Tank Non-pressure Parts
Welds for pads, lifting lugs, and other nonpressure parts, as well as temporary lugs for alignment and scaffolding attached to primary components, shall be made in full compliance with a welding procedure qualified in accordance with Q.6.1. Lugs attached for erection purposes shall be removed, and any significant projections of API standard 650 liquid-storage tanks weld metal shall be ground to a smooth contour. Plate that is gouged or torn in removing the lugs shall be repaired using a qualified procedure and then ground to a smooth contour. Where such repairs are made in primary components, the area shall be inspected by the liquid-penetrant method. A visual inspection is adequate for repairs in secondary components.
